View Full Version : GOLDEN SUN DJINN OPTIONS (for 3.5 & 3.P)

So I ran an interest check for a Golden Sun based forum game and got a lot of responses. While we were deciding which system to play I made up some Djinn abilities that people could use if we ended up playing the DnD System.

Some credit goes to Infernally Clay for coming up with the original idea about using the Djinn.

Each Djinn offers a +2 in a stat or something roughly equivalent, a 3rd (ish) level spell for the character to use while the Djinn is equipped (this spell replaces one of the Adepts highest level spells) and an extra attack that unequips the Djinn used but is supposed to be equivalent to a 4th level spell. Once the Djinn is unequipped, the character loses the bonus spell and the stat boost, but can re equip the Djinn as a free action after a number of rounds (say 1d4).

So here are the tables, if anyone is familiar enough with the games to make some suggestions or come up with new Djinn to add, I encourage it:

Here's some other Djinn Tables I thought up. I'm willing to let people work out their own classes, provided they are thematically appropriate.

Venus Djinn:

What about the Tonic Djinn? :smalltongue:

What about Tonic? Some of them were kinda tough to come up with the proper spells to use so I fudged it a little. If you're got any suggestions I'll listen to them. That's why I posted the tables here in the first place.

I don't recommend mixing Corona with Tonic.

I think doubling the bonuses might be a good idea, since +1 [ability score] does hardly anything. And how would one go about acquiring these?

doubling the bonuses might work, it was supposed to be for an E6 game, so I was worried about them becoming too overpowered.

As far as introducing the Djinn into your game, they could be quest rewards or found throughout the game world. Equipping them wouldn't be any different than it is in the games, where you just sort of "have" them. Each Adept (I'm still working on those classes) can have up to 9 Djinn equipped at a time.

Sorry. That was a joke suggestion. Take a look at my username. :smallbiggrin:

I was wondering if that's what you were referencing. Unfortunately it seems to have gone over my head... ah well.

I'm going to go back and edit the first post so to power up the Djinns a little bit.
